One of Jeroen's bouncy tunes is covered here with some suspense by Feekzoid, who cleverly builds to the payoff bassline with decent synths and restrained. The body of the piece is well done with a standard house/club rhythm section giving it a disco feel. Floaty pads and strings do the business, and clever breaks keep the interest in what is a tune you can easily tire of in its original form. I'm not sure about that lead though: or rather that octave duplication of the lead. It pulls down the piece slightly, and should be more staccato. Quality work.

A fantastic start, I don't think it can be done more perfectly than this! But while I don't always agree with FeekZoid's choices in the rest of his remix, I think a lot of people will enjoy this one. Certainly not your below-average boom-tsk remix, but certainly not the best one, either. But I am sure we'll all listen to it more than once, becuase it's hard to get it out of your head. The lead line is just as good as the opening seconds, and the tune in general shows a lot of creativity. But all those ideas just seem to fly out in all direction - there's no cohesiveness.

Close to the original SID, and one of the remixes where the use of SID samples makes a lot of sense, it preserves the magic of the original. Nice club-sound drums, right balance of bass, simply perfect. The synth lines are singing!
I love it!
